i am going to build a spare p.c out of a few old bits i have, or will buy from ebay.
now this might sound like a stupid question, but here goes.
my old mobo was for a p4 socket 478 cpu. will i have to use a p4 cpu or can i get a p2/p3 to suit it?
This P4 is not bad, it has 1MB L2 Cache, which helps it be faster, but No HT tech on it, still not too terrible for $174.. It has 533MHz FSB so make sure your MOBO can support it.
it would have to be a p4 wouldn't it?
Intel P4 1.8 CPU £35.00 with 2hrs to go, will probably make £40/50 ($70/80)
i can get a p3 with mobo for about £15.00.
